Poetry on Art Quilt:
The water of the brook sings a song of joy as it flows; it has a conversation
that only it can understand, or perhaps a grasshopper at the edge of the brook
can understand scratching its legs, it nods in agreement.
The creek tinkles like bells that a near by fairy can hear. The creek
dances on the banks and splashes and plays.
The river moves slowly continuing toward the sea. It says, “I am too sleepy
to hurry or create such a chatter.” Then it flows down a hill and starts to pick
up speed and finds its voice. A soft roar at first growing more steady as it
caresses boulders and roots.
A chatter of jubilation as it twists and turns heading toward the sea its true home.
